Everybody Is talking ABOUT the Repuh-
lican Club, and apparently the talk is
never to end. The papers say good
deal about the triumph of Foraker. but
! the sensation of the night WAS undoubt-
eddy the vigorous Oglesby. His speech
might have been called a triumphal
march, for when ne started to the right
in his trip along the table during his
| speech he first encountered Mr.. Depew.
Gov. Oglesby waved his arms around Mr..
Depew's head and pounded around that
gentleman's plate until the big railroad
magnate moved back to give the orator
more room. The Governor topped into
the vacant place and stormed around
there until President j. p. Foster felt
that he was in tho way, and he, too,
moved back and joined Depew. BY this
time Oglesby was ranging up and down
the table at rate that nothing could
balk, and he rounded up against Senator
Joseph K. Hawley with such force
and impetuosity that the Senator too re-
tired amid yell of laughter from the
amused diners. Oglesby now had eight
feet to swing himself in, bounded on the
south by Gov. Foraker. The latter made
a determined fight. He lodged here and
there, avoiding the sweep of the Oglesby
arms and cringing beneath the shelter Of
the back of his chair. Foraker's struggle
was brave one, but he was routed and
presently moved back and joined the con-
lingent of distinguished gentlemen who
sat helplessly against the wall.
The Republican Club bids fair to DO a
rival OF the Union League in time. 1t be-
gan as an organization devoted to assist
ing elections at the primaries. 1t had
occasional meetings over chop house on
ITwenty-seventh street, and from this
humble beginning sprang what has
proved to be remarkably successful and
influential club. BLAKELY HALL.

THEY FIRED ON TIE MOB.
Bloodshed BEGUN in Connection With
the Coal Strike.
Trouble Feare1 at w eeha wken--A
Newport News.

SCRANTON. Pa, Jan. 13.-The dscon-
tent of the striking miners formerly in
the employ of the Hillside Coal company
at the consolidated coliery near Moosic
manifested itself Wednesday morning
when the working miners or ''blacklegs"
were assaulted by the strikers. The former
were returning from work to the barracks
where they eat and sleep. The outlook
was so threatening that the working miners,
who were guarded by meagre posse of
seven men, feared for their safety
and importuped the company's officials
for additional protection. To-day,
in response to the request of the
working miners, Supt. May. of the Hill
side Coal company, employed George
Akell, OF the Coal and Iron police of this
city, to go to MoOsic and take charge of the
posse. A warrant was issued and taken
along for the arrest of James Ward, the
rlngleader OF the disturbances. When May
anu the officers arrived they were met by
HoWLING MOB
of 500 who began throwing stones at them.
Just then the 'backlegs' appeared and
We're chased into their barracks Ward was
finally arrested. The mob rushed TO the
Justices Office. defying the officers to bring
him there. Their weight sagged the floor,
anu, tearing the building would tall, they
rushed out, when the prisoner was hurried
i'll by the police. The justice was intm-
idated, however and discharged Ward.
The mob then attacked the barracks and
riddled the windows with stones. The
guards sleZed their rifles and the black
legs" rushed for the formidable looking re-
volvers. determined to hold the fort. The
assault on the barracks being continued the
order was given to fire. Twenty balls sped
in the direction of the mob. The crowd
turned and fed. 1t cannot now be
ascertained whether any of the strikers
were shot or not. Nina Foreman Dolphin
gives it as his opinion that several strikers
were wounded at least by the volley from
the posses rifles The strikers were as
sisted and encouraged by some Of the resi-
dents OF Moosic. All is quiet at midnight.
Fresh trouble is ANTICIPATED to morrow.

NEW YORK, Jan. 13.-Graye fears are
entertained in regard to the situation OF the
coal handlers strike at Weehawken. The
strike took a new phase to-day. The
officers of the Delaware d Hudson
Coal company were notified by the Knights
OF Labor that while the strike is in progress
the company will not be allowed to unload
any coal from its boats and dock in New

Weehawken the aspect during the after
noon was threatening and extra policemen
and bailitfS were called out to guard the
men at work and the governor was
called on for the aid of the militia He re-
piled that as soon as the sheriff notified
him that riot was in progress and beyond
his control he would dispatch troops No

LONDON, Jan. 13.-The freedom of the
city of London was to-day conferred upon
Henry Nj. Stanley. The ceremony took
place in the council chamber of the Guild
hall and a most enthusiastic reception was
accorded the explorer by brilliant COM
pany. After his reception at the Guild
hall he was rendered a banquet at
the Mansion house. The company was
a most brilliant one and comprised
many OF the most distinguished persons in
Great Britain. Among them were the
Baroness B urdette-Coutts, Cardinal Man
ming. Lord Wolseley. Baron Napier. of
Magdala, and Gems. Chelmsford and
Graham. Mr.. Stanley, in an address to the
assemblage, said that he had decided to
take the route by way of the Congo river as
the best and most expeditions for the relief
Of Emir Bey. The passage might be forced
by other routes. but he pointed out that
after the caravans had passed along them
all these routes would be closed, while the
Congo would always be open. The ex-
petition will leave London, the explorer

AUSTIN, Tex, Jan. Ex-senator Bell
to-day introduced bill in the legislature
drafted by Col. Freeman, of the boundary
commission, which provides for
the removal of the boundary
question between Texas and the
United States from the jurisdiction of con-
greSS TO that of the United States supreme
court. The bill is startling in its purposes,
inasmuch as it empowers the state officers
of Texas to begin suit against the state of
Kansas to try the title TO large portion of
Southern Kansas about the area or the state
of New Hampshire. 1t is thought from
neWlydiScOvered evidence unearthed dur
ing the last month that Texas has not only
a legal claim to what is known as Green
county, but to the whole northern half of
Indian Territory and large
slice of Kansas. Inasmuch as
Texas and the federal government have
been unable. after twenty years quibbling,
to fix the question of the Green county
boundary. the bill proposes that a suit be
instituted against the sovereign state of
Kansas, and if Texas wins her side On the
evidence of old maps and the terms
of the boundary settlement it
is calculated that the precedent thus
established would compel the supreme
court TO allow her claims to Green county
and the western half of Indian Ter
ritory. The bill provides for the ex-
penses of the suit which are estimated
at $40. 600. Good judges are OF the opinion
that sufficient evidence exists to warrant
the passage of the BILL

LONDON. Jan. 49, The unfortunate
fate of Lord Iddesleigh has excited sympa-

him, and some of them make very uncom-
plimentary comments on the treatment the
dead man received at the hands of the
prime minister. In this respect the st.
James Gazette says:
II cannot be said that Lord IddesleIgh was
murdered. 1t is no crime to be young man
in a hurry, and it is no crime to push a man
from a stool on which you believe you would

will be held in Westminster abbey. which
will be attended by the diplomatic corps
and the leading members of the various
political parties.
